            | DJW (Dan) | New Berlin, PA | Currently I use an EZ flo injector with my irrigation system for light feedings, but I am considering at times using a barrel to mix into and use a submersible pump to water out of the barrel.  Does anyone have a recommended pump size?  I would like to be able to mix into the barrel the final dilution and drain the barrel in one watering instead of syphoning at a certain ratio.  Any advice is greatly appreciated.  Thanks! | 6/6/2017 9:06:59 AM |  
            | Big City Grower (Team coming out of retirement ) | JACKSON, WISCONSIN. ; ) | 1 inch lawn irrigation pump... sump pumps suck you will get good flow just no pressure the lawn irrigation pump will do both about 150 bucks I have had mine for a few years she is a work horse when my inch pumps die I will be going to a 2 inch pump... it's always cheaper to buy bigger up front than to realize after the fact it was to small..  | 6/6/2017 9:21:19 AM |
